Hm, I guess you're right, 29+ inches scale length seems a bit much for a baritone guitar... I stand corrected. It sure as heck doesn't look like a bass though.
How is it tuned, an octave lower you say? Like a regular bass? Can those skinny strings handle that?

I agree with Angus.

The Stick is a specialized instrument which is only useful for certain situations, as opposed to the bass which is a neccessity in most bands. There is the Bass Stick (ala Tony Levin) but even so, you are better off being good on the bass, and finding gigs, than being good on the Stick.

Sitar! Its all in the sitar. Bands are begging for a good sitar player! hmmm maybe not. But the guitarist at my church plays a stick, and it is the single coolest instrument.....possibly since a fateful year known as 1951.....
